On: Fitness for geeks: my annual review of the Stronglifts 5x5 program

[brown9-2]

increased some of my weights by up to 120%

Just to be sure, do you mean that if you were lifting 50 lbs before in some exercise, you're now lifting 110 lbs?

[lachyg → brown9-2]

Yes, that's right. It was on my triceps and leg curls. (When you start in lower weights, the increase doesn't seem as drastic.)

I see someone has also down voted my original post, I guess that's because I mention Tim Ferriss. sigh
